Ipswich serial killer Steve Wright once lived in Thailand and lost all his money there to some Thai girl. I wonder if these experiences contributed to him turning into a killer of women similar to the one who scammed him after he returned to the UK.
quote:
In 1999, beset with money problems, Wright went to live in Thailand. He is said to have married there but returned apparently in worse financial straits. His experiences overseas made paying for sex a habit that probably contributed to his financial problems and two attempted suicides.
His half-brother, Keith, said: “He tried to do himself in a couple of times. In about 1995 or 1996 they found him in a car down some alleyway. He’d attached a hose to his exhaust. In about 2000, after coming back from Thailand, he took an overdose of pills. . . he went to Thailand and got with some girl who ended up scamming him for everything he had. He got himself into a lot of debt.”
I know one of his former work colleagues who lives in Washbrook..apparently the guys he worked with in the warehouse often chatted about the murders during lunch breaks etc...he commented a few days before being caught that it could quite easily be one of them doing the murders...he was proper crazy...
